A spurned and outcast orc, raised in the hell of the Cidhna Silver Mines, you are not a hero, not even a warrior, you are a Fighter.
The Orc Pit Fighter
"I learned to fight before my hair was long enough to be braided. I learned to kill before I learned to fight."
Roleplaying:
A lone orc, you are a wolf without a pack, a soldier without a cause. After escaping Cidhna mine at young age, you wandered Skyrim, unwanted and outcast from the holds.
If...
there is an intimidate option, pick it, no matter how stupid it is.
someone is trying to pick a fight, you give them a damn fight.
there's a brawl, there's a brawl.
someone says something you don't like, punch their lights out. Fight guards. Get arrested.
You join the Thieves Guild, its as a bruiser. You're there to intimidate people and beat them when they dont pay up. You're no dexterous cat burglar, you just dimly want to take nice things and get gold.
You join the Companions, you're not a champion, no honorable warrior, you're a fighter, hired muscle. These people happen to pay you for getting into trouble.
You join the army (either side), go nuts. People want you to crack skulls? Onward.

Thanks Henson! My other guides just felt very long and wordy, so I wanted to make something with brutal simplicity, something.... Orcish. Though your right, I think there is a lot of good potential for back-story here, I might very well fluff it up later.
I'll keep an eye out for your Orc build and we can compare notes. What I've found is that bleed is actually incredibly weak, as it stems from base weapon damage, but hell, I like it, so I use it. Its all about the fun anyway!

Just started this build, and thus far I've completed The Golden Claw.
While staying and drinking in Riverwood, Embry said something I didn't like so I hit him hard over the head with my steel mace. This caused him to get angry and proceed to fight me with his fists. I clubbed him again, and more blood started to flow. Again and again I rained blows down on him until his lifeless body was oozing on the ground.
It was broad daylight, and some Stormcloak wench saw me and proceeded to pull out her dagger and have at me. Before long, she lay dead in the street.
I was trying to find Alvor when I was attacked by him and his wife. I killed them too.
So now I'm a fugitive in Whiterun, apparently. This ain't nothing compared to life in the CIdna mines.

Bravo! Personally, I would have pummeled Embry with my fists, but that's just me.
Classic orc pit fighter: gets in fight, guard shows up, kills guard.
My next step would be getting arrested in Whiterun, probably after a few good long drinks of mead. After getting let out, I'd probably hit the inn, for a few good long drinks for mead.
Both Mikael and Uthgerd the unbroken can be brawled with (legitimately) to get some coin and maybe even another hot headed outcast to watch your back.

I like orcs, they really don't get venous love. The Icons are all Warcraft 3 or World Of Warcraft Icons, available on their respective wikis. I think they work nicely, but I'm not sure how I feel about using them all the time. The cartoonyness doesn't quite jive with Skyrim's hard realism style ambiance.

Ah, excellent! I love Tolkien's take on the forces of darkness. Though joining any particular order hedges on a bit too organized for our chaotic ball of destruction.
